The ceremony, held at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa in Abuja, brought together trailblazers from both the public and private sectors, organisations and individuals shaping Nigeria’s digital transformation journey through technology and innovation.
Accepting the award, Chika Reginald Nwosu, Managing Director of PalmPay Limited, expressed heartfelt appreciation, describing the recognition as a reflection of the company’s continuous efforts to make financial inclusion a reality for all Nigerians.
“This award is a testament to our commitment to delivering inclusive, secure, and innovative financial solutions that empower lives,” Nwosu said. “We’ll continue to collaborate with stakeholders to advance Nigeria’s digital economy and ensure that technology remains a tool for empowerment, not exclusion.”
